“Earlier this month, Alabama’s House adopted the Alabama Church Protection Act, which would help religious groups form armed security patrols.”
Works until they find an arsenal in a mosque...
Security, yes. Armed guards...well, sure. And armed patrons, why not?
But a private police force...absolutely not! If you think you really need a police force, go hire an off-duty cop or an off-duty deputy sheriff.
A large company I worked for many years had an arrangement where the company security guards were special sheriffs deputies. It gave the company and the guards certain legal protection that wasn’t available otherwise although I know of no occasion where it was used for that purpose.
Briarwood has a large campus. These would be like campus police. I’m not that worried. They are a good group of people.
No way, no how!!!
Makes sense, Farakan has his own police force.

Universities increasingly have their own popos.
> They are a good group of people. <
I’ll take your word on that. But if a church can have its own police force, so can the local Walmart. And so can a mosque.
Private, armed security is good. They can protect life and property, and they can call the police when necessary. But private police, that’s bad. They can, on their own, press criminal charges against you.
So if the imam doesn’t like the way you are behaving on the sidewalk in front of the mosque, off to jail you go.
As long as the communists are bringing in muslims to kill us, churches would be well advised to start their own armies.
“Works until they find an arsenal in a mosque...”
Then Americans can roll out the artillery. Mosques don’t have artillery battalions. Americans do.
Ping to the state list.
In case of overseating?
Many churches quietly ask law enforcement members to bring their weapons concealed carry to church. Just in case. In many churches there is a safety and security committee handling such matters.
In case of overseating?
Overseating is handled by the church’s Re-accommodation Ministry.
Call the Church Police! (for Monty Python fans)

I have heard of one of those polygamist Mormon communities having a police force. Maybe that is a combination of a town and church police force.
Sad thing is this church is a PCA congregation.
Really not a good idea.

Really not a good idea.
